Often, problems can be solved by removing add-ons and peripherals and then
booting again. Internal modems, sound cards, and Plug-n-Play devices are
especially problematic.
Tecras and other notebooks, and some non-portables fail to flush the cache
when switching on the A20 gate, which is provoked by bzImage kernels but
not by zImage kernels. If your computer suffers from this problem, you'll
see a message during boot saying A20 gating failed. In this case, you'll
have to use the `tecra' boot images.
If you still have problems, please submit a bug report. Send an email to
submit@bugs.debian.org. You must include the following as the first lines
of the email:
Package: boot-floppies
Version: version
Make sure you fill in version with the version of the boot-floppies set
that you used. If you don't know the version, use the date you downloaded
the floppies, and include the distribution you got them from (e.g.,
``stable'' or ``frozen'').
You should also include the following information in your bug report:
architecture
i386
model
your general hardware vendor and model
